When Pei Huan went to find Mrs. Shi Lang, Zhan and his daughter-in-law Cao were talking with Mrs. Pei.

In the past month or so, Mrs. Shi Lang proposed two good candidates to Pei Qi. One was rejected by Pei Qi because of his pockmarked face. Anyway, I just don't like it.

The servant's wife is worried.

Not sure what Pei Qi likes now, he specially invited his daughter-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law to discuss Pei Qi's marriage.

Pei Huan wanted to have a private conversation with Mrs. Shi Lang, so he asked his wife, daughter-in-law, and maids who were serving Mrs. Shi Lang to avoid him.

"I heard people say that there is a lot of noise ahead, but you are arguing with your father again. Let him go more when he is older." Mrs. Shilang said so, which shows that Pei Shilang and his wife often quarreled in the mansion. .

"Mother, it's not me who made dad angry this time. Let's talk about this matter later. Let me show you something first." Pei Huan took out a small sweet potato that he had just picked up from his sleeve and handed it to the servant. lady.

The servant's wife took it curiously, "Lotus root? No, the lotus root doesn't look like this, and it doesn't feel right to the touch."

"This is a sweet potato, which yields three thousand gold per mu. It can be said that it is a gold bump growing from the head in the field." Pei Huan said.

Mrs. Shi Lang was surprised. Mrs. Shi Lang started to preside over the middle school of Pei Mansion when she was young. After she had Pei Qi, she gradually delegated the power to her daughter-in-law to concentrate on raising children. She is not an uncommon person, and she knows that What kind of political-political significance does such a high-yield crop appear at this time. "Boss, it's true that one mu of land can grow three thousand catties of sweet potatoes. You can check it out and verify it."

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but it's [-]% true." Pei Huan said.

"In this way, boss, you and your father's official positions can be moved. Your father's old man has been a servant for more than 20 years, and his immediate boss has changed four or five times. He is still motionless. I thought he He is just a servant after he has retired." The servant's wife said happily, "No, then why is your father angry with you when he is unhappy?"

Pei Huan thought to himself, his father was not angry with him, but angry with that wolfish and ambitious Zhao Shutong, at most he was [-]% angry with him, and the remaining [-]% was on Zhao Shutong.

"Mother, the person who brought the sweet potatoes here is Zhao Juren, Qiqi's former wife. Zhao Juren got the sweet potatoes by chance. Zhao Juren wanted to use sweet potatoes as a dowry to marry Qi Qi, but his father was furious and drove Zhao Juren away. "Pei Huan said.

"This Zhao Juren is Qi Qi's wife. How could he, how could he have such thoughts for Qi Qi?" Mrs. Shi Lang looked unacceptable. She really didn't expect that the master who had taught Qi Qi for two years would actually This is how I feel about Qiqi.Did he do something during the two years he taught Qiqi? A chill rose from the bottom of the servant's wife, making her restless.

"Boss, do you want to marry Qiqi to him in exchange for his sweet potatoes, so that you can get promoted and get rich?" Mrs. Shi Lang looked at the eldest son in disbelief.

"Mother, you and father are still alive. Why would I promise Qiqi's marriage to others? Although this Zhao Juren has some flaws in character, he is a person who can be entrusted to Qiqi for life. If he is really that bad, even if he is taken I would not be tempted to produce something more valuable than sweet potatoes." Pei Huan said.

"Listen, let me tell you in detail. Zhao Ju's family is poor and his father has to support him. It's unknown whether he can pass in the next subject if he fails three times. He got everything he wanted. But he is willing to exchange the easy future for the chance to marry Qiqi, and according to his son, there is no one among Qiqi's suitors who is more sincere than Zhao Juren."

"Boss, this further shows that he has deep thoughts and big plans."

According to Qiqi's position in the hearts of Pei Shilang and his wife, Pei Huan didn't intend to persuade Mrs. Shilang immediately, but just said, "Mother, no matter what he wants, he has no power and status, and our family has father, me, and Pei Han." You can suppress him for the rest of your life. Zhao Shutong has shown his utmost sincerity, if you and dad can't decide for a while, you might as well ask Qiqi."

"Ask Qiqi." The servant's wife was stunned. All the marriages she proposed to Xiqi these days were rejected by Xiqi for various reasons, and today, the wife who happened to be before Qiqi came to propose marriage.

Is this really a coincidence?

Madam Shi Lang felt dizzy for a while, "Boss, you go back first, let me think about this matter."

"Young master, I heard from Ah San in the front yard that the master came to visit the old man today, but I don't know what the two of them talked about, but the old man kicked him out of the study, and then the old man invited the master to the study for a conversation. Let someone send the master out of the house." In the afternoon, Qian He told Pei Qi the news from Ah San who had been under his care.

"What, my father drove the master away, why is that?" Pei Qi said anxiously.

The last time he and his master met was in Furong Garden last time. The master said that the next time he came to the capital, it would be the day when he came to the Minister's Mansion to propose marriage.He was counting the days at home every day looking forward to thinking, the master came, but was chased away by his own father.

"Can you find out what the master and my father talked about?" Pei Qi asked.

Qian He shook her head, "At that time, only the old man, the elder man, the housekeeper, and the old man's book boy and wife were in the study, and the others didn't know what the people in the study were talking about."

It is even more impossible to get news from the housekeeper or the old man's book boy.

"I'll go to my father and ask him what's his dissatisfaction with Master." Pei Qi walked out as he spoke, Qian He didn't dare to stop him.

Hong Ying, who came to call Pei Qi over for Mrs. Shi Lang, happened to bump into Pei Qi face to face.

Although Pei Qi was anxious to find his father, his mother told him not to go there, so he could only follow Hongying to his mother's yard first.

"Qiqi, come and sit down, you all go down." Seeing Pei Qi coming, Mrs. Shi Lang pushed back the servants.

"Yes, old lady."

"Mom, what do you want me to do?"

"Qiqi, Mrs. Zhao, who once taught you, came to propose marriage to you today." Mrs. Shi Lang said directly, she has been stimulated a lot today, and she doesn't have the energy to make indirect remarks.

When Pei Qi heard that Zhao Shutong really came to propose marriage as promised, his face showed joy, and then he remembered that his master had said that everything should be blamed on him, so he quickly restrained his happiness and showed a look of indifference look.

But Mrs. Assistant Minister paid close attention to him. How could Pei Qi's expression just escaped Mrs. Assistant Minister's eyes? Mrs. Minister's heart sank, and her worst guess came true.

"Qiqi, you don't seem surprised." Madam Shi Lang asked with a downcast face.

"Mom, I'm so good and good, shouldn't he like me." Pei Qi said boldly.

"Qiqi, do you know what the betrothal gift brought by Mr. Zhao is. Three thousand catties of sweet potatoes are produced per mu, and now the best rice can only harvest more than 400 catties of grain per mu. The appearance of sweet potatoes is beneficial to the country and the people. It’s a good thing. Master Zhao wants to use it to hire you.” Mrs. Minister said.

"It turned out to be food. No wonder Master said that the dowry gift he gave was worthless." Pei Qi said happily.

After he finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have slipped his mouth, so he quickly covered his mouth.

The servant's wife was going to be angry, but seeing Pei Qi like this, she was so angry and funny. When sweet potatoes are planted in Daqi in the future, sweet potatoes will naturally be worthless, but its current value can't be discussed in terms of money. If it wasn't for the wrong timing, the servant's wife would have wanted to make fun of Pei Qi just because you are high-spirited, and they are just a group of ordinary people who value profit.

"What is going on between you and Mr. Zhao, Zhao Juren, please tell me clearly." Mrs. Shi Lang asked.

Pei Qi saw that he couldn't hide it any longer, so he had to tell the truth, "Mother, I don't know what's going on. Anyway, if I can play and talk with my master, my master will not dislike me for being stupid and talented, and will still be with me." Talking about the book, earnestly teaching me those things that I can't learn, I feel very happy to be with my wife every day. Mom, please let dad agree to my wife's marriage proposal."

Mrs. Shi Lang saw that she hadn't dealt with her youngest son's personal relationship with others, and the youngest son was about to get married. She felt very angry. She didn't want to keep her brother. She had chosen a marriage for her son a few months ago. All the effort was wasted.

"Okay, so it turns out that the old boy has seduced my Qiqi, to see if I won't be interrupted by his dog legs. He really thinks that my servant's house is easy to bully." The mother and son were talking, Pei The waiter suddenly barged in.

Pei Shilang vented enough of his anger in the front yard, and wanted to come to Mrs. Shilang to discuss countermeasures.When he came to the courtyard of Mrs. Shi Lang, he heard from the servants that Madam and Qi Qiping had retreated and the servants were talking in the house, and they came directly without anyone notifying them. He didn't expect to hear how Zhao Shutong deceived Qi at the beginning. Xi, Pei Shilang felt very distressed immediately, and immediately wanted to seek justice for Pei Qi.

"Father, I asked my master to propose marriage. You are not allowed to go." Pei Qi immediately stopped her.

"I'm going to break Zhao Shutong's leg and let him know that Pei Mansion is not a place for him to run wild." Pei Shilang said with his neck stuck.

"Father, you are being unreasonable."

"Father will not harm you. You are deceived by him, so you think he is a good man."

"Hmph, I don't care. If you let someone break your master's leg, I will go on a hunger strike and run away from home."

"What the hell, that Zhao Shutong actually taught you to hurt yourself and threaten your parents. It really is a wolf's ambition." Pei Shilang blamed Pei Qi's bad behavior on Zhao Shutong.

"What does it have to do with the master?"

"If it weren't for him, would you talk to me like this?"

If it wasn't for Zhao Shutong's malicious intentions, how could his family's well-behaved Qi Qi fall in love with such a thing like a blind person, and would have a private life with such an old man.If it wasn't for Zhao Shutong's instigation, how could Qiqi contradict him.

In short, everything is Zhao Shutong's fault.
